If you were to eat the salmon roe, which of the five species have the tastiest flavour?

Thanks.

Chum hands down the richest and smoothest tasting.
Then Spring then Coho.
Haven't tried the others yet

Chum Roe is the stuff that you get in sushi joints.  A lot of people really love it, not me.  Smell is the sense most closely tied to memory.  The first time I tried eating it, one egg popped in my mouth and BAM! I was 15 years old fishing Cohos and trying to get that stink out of my hands! :P

So... There is no recipe really, but if you want your first experience with it to be good, have it at a restaurant.  It's sucks that I've been turned off of it :(

The eggs serve in sushi joints is called Ikura i believe and like sturgeon caviar, it is heavily salted. 

Bug Pumper tried some home made stuff his friend did and he really liked it.  Once again jsut single eggs.  He said his friend used a blender to get the eggs off the skien??? so I guess they were water hardened first then salted?
